Roman shades and roll-up blinds have been recalled by the Consumer Product Safety Commission many times in the past.

With roll-up blinds, strangulation can occur if the lifting loops slide off the sides of the blind, then a child’s neck can get tangled on the loop or between the lifting loop and the blind.

In Roman shades, a child can be strangled if his neck gets between the exposed inner cord and the decorative fabric on the back side of the blind, or when the cord is pulled out and accidentally gets wrapped around a child’s neck.

If you have purchased any of the Roman shades or roll-up blinds on this list, contact the company where you bought the window covering to see what repair or replacement options are available. Remember, it is illegal to resell any product that has been recalled. See the table below for a list of companies and retailers.
